An absolutely stunning 2.82 acre, 24 room Greek Revival estate refurbished to it's original elegance. Approximately 5800 sq.ft., located at the end of Clifton Forge's most prominent street, the home, know as "Hillcrest", commands an exceptional view of the town of Clifton Forge (the town the C&O railroad built) and the surrounding Alleghany Mountains.
Mature landscaping, formal garden, large in-ground pool, charming playhouse, and a 3 car garage with apartment on second level, enhance the estate. Private location yet walking distance to downtown.
There are 7 spacious bedrooms with 2 masters suites and 6 full baths. Grand entrance hall with staircase, crystal chandeliers, refinished oak floors, new kitchen with custom cabinets and granite counter tops, period wallpaper, two large mantled fireplaces, all accent the antique character of the home.
The home, built like a fortress, is solid masonry and has been meticulously restored. All 54 windows have been replaced, a side deck and stairs added, 2 new heat pumps, 400 amp electrical wiring installed, and refurbished in-ground pool and grounds. The exterior features an expansive front porch with magnificent vistas, and antique red brick walkways meandering through the property.
Architecturally, the house is strikingly similar to the landmark "Homestead Resort Hotel" in Hot Springs, Virginia, 30 minutes to the North. The home is a candidate for application to the National Historic Register of properties.
A truly beautiful home, perfect for a peaceful retreat, with limitless potential for a Bed and Breakfast, Restaurant, or Antique Shop. The home is a "Show Place" in Alleghany County.
